Veteran Actress, Patience Ozokwor, has recounted a golden advice and warning she gave her Junior colleague, Mercy Johnson, some years back.
Mercy Johnson was joined by the Nollywood icon on Season 3 Episode 9 of her kitchen show, Mercy’s Menu.
In a video making the rounds, the pair had a great time talking and sharing experiences as they prepared catfish pepper soup with unripe plantain.
While reflecting on the past during her chat with the mother of four, Patience Ozokwo recalled an advice she gave Mercy Johnson as regards her indecent dressing while she was single.
“Do you remember when you were younger before you got married when I told you that the photos u take today, your children will see them tomorrow and immediately the kind of lifestyle you lived”
And Mercy Johnson acknowledged the statement saying;
“Yes you did, you told me MErcy dress properly, you will have kids and when they grow up, they will ask you, why are you looking this way, yes I remember, I’m lucky but i still learned the hard way really”

Also during their conversation, Patience Ozokwor revealed why she didn’t marry after she lost her husband years ago.
“I wanted to remarry but my kids had already come of age and they pleaded with me not to marry another man and they promised they will be my husband. They asked me to stay single for them so their friends will not laugh at them that at their age their mum remarried and I understood them, though it was selfish of them but i paid the huge sacrifice for them, no sacrifice is too huge for family.”
